Apatite-wollastonite glass ceramic scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications

In bone tissue engineering, one of the main challenges is to fabricate scaffolds that promote and support osseous reconstruction. The research reported in this thesis considers the use of apatite-wollastonite (A-W) as a bone scaffold. A variety of scaffold fabrication techniques, all based on initia...
